Or, put another way: what Spotify has done for audio entertainment we're doing for audio information. And whatever we're doing seems to be working: we're #1 in our category, profitable, and have hockey-stick growth.

  • Systems thinking. You know how to think high level about end-to-end systems involving multiple products, 3rd party services etc
  • Speed. You work quickly to generate ideas and options and know how to decide which things can ship now and what things need time
  • Focus. We're a high-growth startup with a busy, remote team. You know how and when to engage or be heads down
